Carrier Oils for Your Face
There are a LOT of different carrier oil options for the face as well, each with its own beneficial properties. I recommend doing some research on carriers to see what oil may be most beneficial for your skin. Some are more moisturizing, some soak in better, some are best for oily or acne-prone skin… definitely do some research! Here is a list you can start with (choose organic varieties):
- Argan Oil (my daughter uses this on her teenage skin, and it’s perfect for her and helps keep her skin clear)
- Rose Hip Seed Oil
- Chia Seed Oil
- Sunflower Oil
- Jojoba Oil
- Grape Seed Oil
- Hemp Seed Oil
